Indoor Air Quality Testing For Mold.

Are you suffering from colds allergy, itchy watery eyes,
fatigue, weakness, headaches, or asthma symptoms.

We spend 90% of our time indoors.
And the air indoors can be up to 10 times more harmful than the outside air.
Take control of your indoor air quality?
Prevent illness and increase productivity, energy and good health.
We test for Mold Spores in the air you breathe.

Sampling is sent to a Certified Third Party Laboratory.
The turnaround time is 24 Hrs.

All of our samples are properly labeled and submitted with a Chain of Custody form, which allows us to trace possession of the sample from the point of collection to receipt from the lab. This maintains the integrity of your samples.

The laboratory provides a detailed written report of the quantity and identification of spores.

We also use Infrared Thermal Imaging and a Moisture Meter to check to see if there’s any water damage between the walls, floors and ceilings which can cause mold growth and
test for relative humidity.

  • Mold testing stand alone service $400
  • Mold testing add-on service with Home Inspection $300

We also test for:

Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Is a greenhouse gas that is natural and harmless in small quantities, but as levels rise it can affect productivity, sleep, restlessness, drowsiness, increased heart rate and blood pressure, sweating and headaches. Most commonly produced indoors by the air we exhale, CO2 levels concentrate indoors with less ventilation.

Volatile Organic Compound (VOC)

VOCs, volatile organic compounds, are cancer-causing chemicals released by cleaning agents, room deodorizers, candles and fires, especially scented candles.
VOCs can cause serious health effects in both the short and long term. Health effects vary from minor eye, nose and throat irritations all the way to liver and kidney damage or cancer, depending on the level of exposure.

Short term effects:

  • Headache
  • Nose, throat, eye inflammation
  • Coughing, painful breathing
  • Pneumonia, bronchitis
  • Skin irritation

Long term effects:

  • Affects the central nervous system (headache, anxiety)
  • Cardiovascular diseases
  • Respiratory diseases (asthma, cancer)
  • Impacts on liver, spleen, blood
  • Impact on the reproductive system

Formaldehyde CH2O (H-CHO)

The dangerous gas is commonly emitted by wooden painted surfaces, fabrics, carpets, adhesives & glues in furniture and building materials like pressed wood & particle board. Exposure to formaldehyde may cause health effects in some individuals.

Short-term exposure may result in immediate symptoms including:

  • Eye, nose and throat irritation, Coughing, Headaches, Dizziness and nausea.

Particulate Matter (PM)

Dust, fungi, bacteria and pollen are common examples of Particulate Matter. The smaller these particles are, the worse they are for your health, especially because they are invisible. The smallest of the Particles, linger in the atmosphere for weeks at a time, are freely transported by air currents, and are most likely to cause infection by bacteria released by just a single cough or sneeze.

Humidity

Exposure to hazardous conditions resulting from building decay, water damage, poor plumbing, and legacy pollutants are exacerbated by high levels of humidity. Spikes in humidity may result in mold growth on any substance which can happen within 48 hours of contact with a surface, triggering asthma, respiratory symptoms, irritation of the eyes, nose & mouth.
